Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

I was recently tried to install a package via pip that gave me an error that suggested that dpup buster has too old a version of qt5 to work with this package. The thought occured to me, "Can I install an older version of this package on pip and if so how do I tell what versions are available".

I found the answer to the second question:

$ pip install yolk3k
$ yolk -V django
Django 1.3
Django 1.2.5
Django 1.2.4
Django 1.2.3
Django 1.2.2
Django 1.2.1
Django 1.2
Django 1.1.4
Django 1.1.3
Django 1.1.2
Django 1.0.4

Here is an example of how to install a specific version:

pip install MySQL_python==1.2.2

In my case this is no use because there is only one avialbe version of the package that I want:

yolk -V guiscrcpy
guiscrcpy 4.7.2
